v. 0.3.5
Hello. This update took a bit longer than expected due to my artist falling ill and having to find someone to take over. With that said, as we'll be working more with new content instead of just maintenance/bugfixes, expect updates to take between 1-2 weeks.
This update had a focus on extending the character abilities with super abilities. In addition there's a new elite type and a way to view the top leaderboard scores. There's also an option to have the primary weapon auto-aim if you're having difficulties doing this manually or just prefer a more casual approach.
[h2]Next steps[/h2]
On start of Early Access I created a poll on what kind of content players would like to see more of. These are the results of that from 112 submissions (at the time of writing):
Now, although it's tempting to jump straight into creating more characters, I agree with the sentiment that the core features should be expanded more upon first. Therefore, for the time being I'm going to focus on the next best voted groups. Your input in these are as always much appreciated:
Suggest new weapons, items and consumables
Suggest new missions and events
These threads are available on the Discord server as well.
[h2]Full v. 0.3.5 changelog[/h2]
General
- New setting: Automatically aim the primary weapon (default: Off)

- Leap Slam: 50% larger AoE with electricity (damage = 10% STR)
- Dash: 1 large explosive arrow fired the opposite direction landing at middle point (damage = 10% PER)
- Force Field: Outer rim is on fire (damage = 10% INT)
- Lullaby: 5 notes fired in random direction (damage = 10% CHA). Each enemy hit drops a coin

Bugs
